This feature will also help get you to other Google Maps features faster - for example, typing ‘rea’ will suggest real estate, and selecting that suggestion will take you straight into
real estate search mode.
The search suggestions in Google Maps also include additional information, such as the address of the business or the district that a place is in. This extra information helps you find and select the exact business or location you're seeking.
So next time you’re running out the door and know you’re going to ‘Oak’ somewhere ... try letting Google Maps help you out with a few suggestions.
